My first, but not my last, Akademy is over and I arrived back in Switzerland. Akademy was really amazing and I want to thank everyone who made that possible. It was a great pleasure to meet you all. Keep on rocking!

One of my good post Akademy intentions is to support the KDE-EDU team. The first step is to get my kids joyfully involved into software development with rubber ducks. They love it! ;-)

This is my first Akademy and I have to admit: I'm blown away! It's better than I even expected. It's such a pleasure to meet so many friendly and openminded KDE members from India, Hungary, France, Italy, Brasil, the Netherlands, USA, Canada, Norway, Finland, Denmark, Germany, Austria, Slovenia and many many more countries.I really enjoy to know the people behind the names and nicknames. Two days ago I meat Aurélien Gâteau, the developer of Gwenview and yesterday he won the KDE award for the best application. Congratulations!

On the first night we showed the world that KDE doesn't only rock your desktop but also rock your party!

One final point. The local organizing team and specially the local volunteers are doing an excellent job! You rock, too!

I arrived in Helsinki on the evening of June 30th. The sightseen today was very nice and the weather is absolutely great. You can expect finish summer for the next days. :-)Although the water might still be a little cold for residends from milder geographical regions like me.
